Las Vegas NV: Newly-Single Fun Recovery Packages


If you’ve recently lost your partner due to divorce or other sad happening that left you lonely, consider this happy deal. Virgin Holidays has created several different 'divorce holiday' four-night packages in Sin City at Caesars Palace and other luxury hotels on the famous Vegas Strip. The cost, based on three other lonely travel mates with you, is about $1,000.

The promotion is centered on women (and maybe men, too) dealing with painful marriage or other romance break-ups.  The unique Las Vegas schedule includes pool parties, personal styling sessions, photo shoots, nightly entertainment and shopping sprees. The party packages also feature excursions,  including helicopter rides over the Las Vegas Strip.

Fly To Mars: Agency Seeks Senior Married Couple PDF Print E-mail


According to CNN, the Paragon Space Development Corporation may hire a husband and wife to be on the first manned (and womanned) journey to the Red Planet. Still in the early planning stages, the space flight would happen in 2018.

The planners may look for a senior couple as volunteers, because Paragon scientists fear radiation and other space hazards would have negative effects on young travelers’ internal organs. That means the travelers would have to be beyond childbearing age.

With new technology, the 70-million-mile roundtrip would take just under two years each way. So far in the plans, there would be no landing on Mars, just a brief orbit of the Red Planet, the total requiring the couple to be away from Earth for almost 48 months.

Old traveler’s response: Four years is a hell of a long time to be away from the grandkids, senior discount at IHOP and the TV soap operas.
